INTRODUCTION
This replication package reproduces the results for the paper entitled "Contraceptive Concordance," which is published in Studies in Family Planning (SFP) at https://doi.org/10.1111/sifp.70018.

FILE AND FOLDER SET-UP:
1. Save all files (the dataset, do file) in the same folder named DATA.
2. Create a subfolder named RESULTS in the folder where these files are saved.

To run the do-file, open the Replication_Do_File.do file in Stata, change the username based on your computer's username (line 11 in the do-file), the filepath for maindir1 to the directory where the pooled data file is saved (line 11 in the do-file) and the filepath for maindir2 to the directory where the results will be saved (line 13 in the do-file). Execute the do-file in Stata by clicking on Run. The outputs of each file will be stored in the "RESULTS" folder.

1. Replication_Do_File.do: The do file that replicates tables 1-3 and Figures 4-7
